The surname Wise is of Anglo-Saxon origin and derives from the Old English word "wis", meaning "wise" or "knowledgeable". It was originally a nickname given to individuals who were considered to be wise or intelligent. The name Wise can be traced back to early medieval England, where it was primarily found in the counties of Worcestershire, Shropshire, and Hampshire.

However, when it comes to the Irish descent of the surname Wise, its history takes a slightly different route. In Ireland, the surname Wise is more commonly associated with an Anglicized form of the Gaelic surname "Mac Gaoithín". The prefix "Mac" means "son of", while "Gaoithín" is derived from the Irish word "gaoth" meaning "wind". Therefore, the Irish surname Wise can be interpreted as "son of the wind".

The Mac Gaoithín family was originally from County Kerry in southwestern Ireland. They were descendants of the ancient Gaelic tribe known as the Eóganachta, who held significant power and influence in the region during the Middle Ages. Over time, some members of the Mac Gaoithín family adopted the surname Wise as a means of assimilation into English society during the period of English colonization and anglicization in Ireland.

Today, individuals with the surname Wise, whether of Anglo-Saxon or Irish descent, can be found throughout the English-speaking world, with notable concentrations in the United States, Canada, and Australia.
